A businessman at large, Duško Knežević, has become active again threatening to reveal ‘some data about Milo Đukanović’s regime’ during the election campaign. He claims that the Montenegrin govt had a political conflict with him, which was confirmed by Interpol’s withdrawal of a warrant. Mr Knežević skillfully used such Interpol’s decision to deceive the public and say ‘he’s a free man now’, avoiding to mention that there’s an extradition proceedings against him before the UK court and until the termination of it, he’s free to go nowhere.
The London’s diplomatic courts have confirmed Dnevne Novine daily that the order of the UK court is still in force, while Mr Knežević is now waiting to see what’s going to happen.
“Duško Knežević was not arrested in the United Kingdom on the basis of an Interpol warrant, but a British court order issued on the basis of a Montenegrin extradition request. That warrant is still in force. Mr Knežević is on parole waiting for a date when the UK court will consider his case,” they noted.
That being said, Mr Knežević cannot leave the UK as he has been waiting for the continuation of proceedings there even though he recently told he planned to go to Washington soon.
Fugitive businessman is wanted for arrest in MNE due to the multimillion spending habits at the expense of the country. For now, he’s facing six incitement charges for the following criminal offences – organizing a crime gang, money laundering and abuse of office.
